I’m shocked that we’re even debating this.
You know, Presidential primary elections didn’t used to be a thing either. It used to be that the Partys’ committee members decided (a la, a bunch of white men in a smoke-filled room) who was going to be their Party’s candidate for President.
Should we go back to doing that as well? Then Bernie would have had zero chance whatsoever, and his movement would have fizzled out before it even got started.
